abstract = {Studies revealed and keep revealing a staggering diversity
of life-cycle patterns and genome-sizes in microalgae. Even
within a single order like the Volvocales with Volvox
carteri, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, and Dunaliella salina,
differences are significant. Additional knowledge gaps in
microalgal physiology and genetics hinder our understanding
of their evolution and valorization. Herein, we present for
the first time, the multiple fission cell-cycle with
corresponding DNA quantities of the economically important
Volvocales Haematococcus pluvialis. Further, we provide two
straightforward protocols for efficient culture
synchronization, based on filtration or skimming of
zoospores. The cell-cycle and nuclear DNA content where
monitored by flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy
after staining with dsDNA dye PICO- or SYBR-green®. The
average nuclear DNA content was 3.6–4.1 and
22.6–25.2 pg in zoospores/coenobial daughter-cells and
aplanospores, respectively. We found a single DNA
replication step for all coenobial daughter cells prior
mitosis, followed by one consecutive cytokinesis. Thus, our
results suggest a new Haematococcus-type Cn cell-cycle with
unusual polyploid and polynuclear phases. This cell-cycle
regime might allow for the large genome-size of
Haematococcus and is consistent with the mutational-hazard
hypothesis for Volvocales microalgae.},
